[Elecraft] Automated Transmitter Gain Calibration - accolade

[Don Nelson]

Hi,

I have tried and like the automatic transmitter calibration test. The
reporting of the SWR for each test provides useful information. Thank you
for adding it to the utility package.

The trouble/benefit of us human beings is that we will ALWAYS want more.

I ran the test with a poor quality coax (I did not know it at the time) and
saw the SWR increase with frequency such that during the 12m test on 5w, the
SWR exceeded the threshold and the test stopped. At first I thought it was
my instrument grade dummy load. I replaced the coax and the test went to
completion.

My request is to be able to run just one test, say the 10m test only. If I
had had this capability, I would be able to see if the SWR failure was on
12m only. As the test sequencer works now, I know where a test failed and I
do not know anything beyond that failure point.

By the way, you have provided us with a tool to test the quality of coax
(and dummy loads) over the frequency range of 1.9 MHz to 50 MHz. Now I
suppose we will want to be able to change the frequency of each test and to
move the report to the printer or a file.  And if you would consider
..........

Don, N0YE
